Kia ora e te whaanau,
Good afternoon Parents / Caregivers,
I want to start today by acknowledging the challenges that a lot of our community have experienced since Cyclone Gabrielle, especially to those of us connected to communities still affected in across the North Island. We have connections with Wairoa College and have reached out to offer them support. They are really struggling with many of their whaanau having lost everything. They have said that financial support at this time would be best, so that they can support families as they try and bounce back and return to school next week. We will run a non-uniform day on Friday 3rd March, please donate generously to support their community. You can either contribute through an online payment to CHS, or through a cash donation during form time.
Other important items in this communication today:

Vaping update
PPTA Strike Action
Athletics Day
Have a great weekend everyone. Remember to hit the shops or raid dress up bags for the Athletics Day on Tuesday. It looks like it will be a perfect day to dress in house colours for participation and competition in our Athletics events.
Ngaa mihi
